Good one Alex! That's probably the best advice you can get

Also check if often-used knobs have been turned too "violently" or eagerly, making them wobbly. Especially the filter knob which gets used alot.. Try "wiggling" very carefully (so you don't cause the damage you're looking for ) It shouldn't move very much.

And another (perhaps more minor detail), see if the silkscreen (correct word?) is worn by much knob-twiddling and fingers repeatedly rubbing against the surface..

I'm not saying it should cause you to back off, but I like my synths to look and feel as good as possible. And it's a relatively new synth you're getting.. Good luck!

Best,
Alex
